An employee from Directorate of Public Works (DPW), U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys, tests for residual power with a voltage tester after cutting off the electricity from a transformer as part of Black Start Exercise at Camp Humphreys, South Korea, April 1, 2026. Mandated by Congress, the U.S. Army's "Black Start" exercises are designed to test an installation's energy resilience and its ability to function independently during a complete loss of external power. During the exercise, an installation is deliberately taken off the public power grid to simulate a widespread blackout with the goal of identifying and addressing any infrastructure vulnerabilities.
